Springs Dining Hall

Improved Essays
Hey Joe! How has it been brother? I heard you like the campus at SCAD! I heard from the parents that you absolutely hate the food and cafeteria there at SCAD. It is pretty funny they would spend all that money on the campus. But they spend pennies on your food that seems to be bought from a flea market.
Well, for our campus, we actually have two separate lunchrooms that we have the choice of dining in. They are the Greenwood Dining Hall and the Springs Dining Hall. I don’t mean to brag, but they are both far better than flea food! Springs has food you can take with you back to your dorm, but there is not a very large selection of food.

The person standing at the door is usually my favorite woman Mrs. Yolanda. She usually wears a white PC shirt. She takes your Presbyterian College I.D. card and swipes it to charge your meal on your account. It’s also very hard not to notice the outrageously loud conversations going on in the background. It’s usually coming from the multicolored wave of students sitting in the room; however, faculty and staff are somewhat to blame. There’s also the occasional scraping and scratching noises of wooden tables and chairs across the tile floor. While most people believe that the scenery is what makes the lunchroom special, I believe it’s the people you meet that makes it special. What made my first experience special was when I discovered that my high school friend Kaitlyn was attending Presbyterian College with me. She introduced me to several of her own friends that she

    Service Paper First of all the full service dining restaurant I choose to dine at was Olive Garden in Holly Springs with my family. When we ate dinner there it was a Friday night around seven pm it was pretty busy when we walked in and there were people sitting inside and outside waiting for their names to be called.

Each host made eye contact and welcomed us as we walked up by saying “welcome to Olive Garden how are you all this evening?”…

    Honestly, I am an undergrad student at MCPHS-Boston, and to tell you the truth, unless you are naturally intelligent, and/or willing to make big sacrifices and go through hard struggles, this college is not for you. I am not telling you this because I am not a hard working, unmotivated, or lazy student, who is angry at the school for receiving bad grades. It is more because I have experienced this school and have found out many things that would have made me not come here in the first place had I known before. The main thing that comes to mind here is that this school is ALL ABOUT YOUR MONEY. Which is why they have such a high acceptance rate.…

    Everyone has time to be healthy Freshman 15 is an expression used to describe an arbitrary amount of weight students put on in their first year of post secondary studies, usually due to unhealthy eating and poor exercise habits. Students say they struggle finding a balance between work, leisure, and maintaining healthy habits, leading to a lack of exercise, and poor nutrition. These complaints are clearly caused by a lack of intrinsic motivation and a growing status quo of complacency, rather than actual time constraints. Despite the vast number of home workouts that one can complete in under ten minutes, students will still excuse themselves from any form of physical activity, in favour of inactive alternatives. The problem is further pushed…
